I want to use the batch processor more often BUT I require
it to send each file back to the original folder it came
from, preferably with a appended name....this is no problem
if each file to be batched comes out of the same folder,
but how do I do it when the source and desired destinations
are from many folders?

Is this possible?

any input please...
thanks

Hi Aaron,

Unfortunately this is not possible with the Batch Converter. You can
only specify one folder to monitor, and one to dump to.

ok then is there a way to automatically add a prefix or suffix of the
source file path to all the files?

Aaron -
I want to see this behavior as well. I just did a job of 300 loops
and they all had specific categories/folders and I wanted to batch
them but have them all end up in their proper folders. Can't do it.
SF - could you please keep this in mind for the future version?

thanks!

seems like this would be helpful...

I record to DA-88 then transfer files into vegas...usually 32 tracks
per song. If I have 13 songs for one band and many files will take
similar processing, i.e. all the kicks from all the songs, Id like to
run a batch on them....but cant cuz they will all have the same name
if I record with the same template...if there was just a way to
automatically add the source file path to the suffix or something....


What Id really LOVE to see is an option in Vegas where you right
click an event, and there was an option "add copy to batch" THAT
would kick serious ass!!!
